In this unforgettable conversation, Heather chats with Hall of Fame quarterback and author Steve Young to explore one of the most transformative concepts: The Law of Love. Steve invites us to examine how our culture—especially within faith communities—often leans into transactional patterns in relationships, spirituality, and even identity. Through powerful personal stories, including his own wrestling with anxiety, legacy, and identity after football, Steve shares how embracing a non-transactional, love-centered approach has changed the way he sees God, himself, and others. Whether you're struggling with parenting, faith transitions, or your own self-worth, this episode will challenge you to reframe your lens and find healing through the eternal, unearned love that transcends performance.

Transformational Behavior: Prioritizes growth, partnership, and collaboration, treating others as human beings and fostering a sense of togetherness. Examples Of Transactional Behaviors: Ignoring people in passing. Only reaching out when you need something. Skipping “please” and “thank you.” Being all business all the time. Evaluating people only by their outputs. Acting like hierarchy means superiority. Focusing on tasks rather than the purpose. Dropping tasks on others without context. Treating other people's time as expendable. Being performative or fake. Failing to give feedback. Protecting turf or withholding information. Transformational Practices: Acknowledge and greet people. Show genuine interest in others' lives and well-being. Use polite language and express gratitude. Bring your whole, most evolved self to work. Recognize efforts and learning, not just results. Treat everyone as a peer and partner. Connect tasks to the larger purpose. Provide context for tasks and decisions. Respect others' time by being punctual and prepared. Be authentic and own up to mistakes. Offer constructive coaching. Share information freely and foster a culture of abundance. “People are sharp. Teams are well-rounded.” —Donald O.

Welcome to The K9PT Academy podcast, the only podcast in veterinary rehabilitation & physical therapy that focuses on helping business owners and entrepreneurs build and scale a profitable and successful canine rehabilitation business! It is episode 150! In this milestone episode, we're diving into a topic that's at the heart of long-term success as a canine rehabpreneur: transformational leadership. Whether you're solo or managing a team, how you lead—yourself, your clients, and your business—matters more than anything else. We explore the difference between transactional vs. transformational leadership, why most of us were raised around transactional models, and how shifting your mindset can build a stronger business, deeper client relationships, and a more empowered team. Listen to the full episode as we discuss: Transformational leadership is key to long-term business success, whether you're solo or managing a team. Transactional leadership relies on a reward/punishment model, which often leaves people feeling undervalued and unsupported. Transformational leadership focuses on developing people, not just getting tasks done—helping them grow in skill, confidence, and purpose. You must lead yourself first—your growth as a business owner directly impacts how far your business can go. The client relationship should be transformational too, not just transactional. Educate and empower clients to feel involved and supported. “Drop-off” appointments risk making clients feel like a number—being present and involved builds loyalty and connection. Help your team (or yourself) understand the 'why' behind processes, not just the 'what'—this builds buy-in and improves outcomes. Transformational leadership differentiates you in a competitive field, especially as corporate and mobile clinics continue to grow.

“I do so much for them, and they don't even notice”. Sounds like a familiar thought? Many parents of struggling teens or young adults feel used, taken for granted, or stuck in a dynamic where love feels more like a series of trades than a relationship.In this episode, I'm joined again by therapist Trevor Allen to unpack the tricky dynamic of transactional parenting and behavior: what it is, how it shows up, and most importantly, how to shift out of it. From “I let you go out, so you should clean your room” to “I do everything for you, and you won't even help me out,” we explore how as well-meaning parents we can end up in a tit-for-tat cycle that erodes trust and connection.It's not only us as parents who can experience this and feel unseen. Believe it or not, our teens might be experiencing the same thing. Miscommunication, mismatched expectations, and unspoken needs can keep both parent and teen feeling unseen.This is a compassionate, eye-opening episode for any parent trying to find their way back to genuine connection, without keeping the score. Not everything has to feel like a negotiation. Let's explore this topic more in today's episode.In this episode on feeling used by your teen, we cover:What transactional parenting is and why it often shows up during tough seasons;How the “I give, you give” pattern damages trust and connection;What to say when you feel used or taken for granted by your teen;How to spot (and shift) transactional tendencies in your parenting;The importance of modeling healthy, reciprocal relationships;Why it's compliance but connection that is at the foundation for long-term change;And more!Looking for support?

What if your next fundraising event wasn't just another rubber chicken gala—but a magnetic, mission-driven experience people couldn't stop talking about? That's exactly what Brittany Bedford, Customer Success Manager at Bloomerang, urges nonprofit leaders to imagine.In this high-energy episode, Brittany dives deep into the art of turning events from forgettable to phenomenal. She shares fresh research, real-world examples, and wildly creative strategies that help nonprofits connect with long-term donors in meaningful, memorable ways.“We've got to shift from the fundraiser's point of view to the attendee's,” Brittany emphasizes. “They're coming to feel connected. This is their chance to be a part of something meaningful.”Julia Patrick, host, agrees—and doesn't hold back: “We don't even sit down and ask, what do our guests need? That's dreadful. We just copy and paste the last event!”From gamified donor experiences and staff-led greetings to runway walk-offs and dogs painting art live onstage, Brittany proves that creativity isn't just a nice-to-have—it's a donor retention superpower. In one standout example, she describes an event where guests interacted with service dogs creating art, then bid on those pieces at auction. “People were laughing, posting, and telling the story for weeks,” she recalls.She also unpacks Bloomerang's new research showing that:·        70% of donors say a fun experience makes them more likely to stay engaged·        53% say gamification was their most memorable event moment·        Yet only 6% of fundraisers are implementing this!The takeaway? Nonprofits must ditch the rinse-and-repeat and embrace innovation—starting with the very first hello. Whether you're planning your first gala or your fiftieth, this episode is a game-changer for how you think about donor events.00:00:00 Welcome and Guest Introduction00:02:00 Brittany's Role at Bloomerang00:03:40 Transitioning from Transactional to Inspirational Events00:06:00 Copy-Paste Event Planning Pitfalls00:08:30 New Research: What Donors Really Want00:10:20 Gamification at Events: Why It Works00:13:00 Making Staff and Board Comfortable with Engagement00:15:00 Rethinking Guest Check-In and First Impressions00:17:00 Dogs Painting Art: An Unforgettable Event Idea00:20:00 Peer-to-Peer Meets Fashion Show Fundraiser00:23:30 Using Event Data for Future Engagement00:27:00 Can Small Teams Pull This Off?#DonorEngagement #NonprofitEvents #FundraisingInnovationFind us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

Dennis from Chesterfield, Missouri, wants to know if sales coaching truly moves the performance needle, especially when shifting from transactional approaches to more consultative selling. Below are the key insights from our conversation on why coaching matters, how it boosts sales and culture, and what leaders should do right now to make it happen. Why Sales Coaching Is Essential Sales is a skill position. Even the best reps lose their edge if they're left on their own for too long. Much like elite athletes, sales professionals need ongoing input to fine-tune their mechanics, recharge their motivation, and keep small errors from turning into big problems. Coaching can be the difference between a rep who has plateaued and one who keeps climbing—because it provides immediate, personalized feedback when it counts most. From Knowledge Acquisition to Knowledge Application Training is vital for learning new strategies, product details, and selling techniques, but it doesn't guarantee that anyone will actually use those ideas. That's where coaching comes in. A coach helps each individual absorb and adapt those lessons to their unique style, role, or territory. Research shows that simply sending people to training without one-on-one follow-up leads to a big dip in retention and performance. But when coaching supports training, skill application soars—along with results. Leading, Managing, and Coaching: The Three Pillars of Leadership Sales leadership has three core pillars. Leading sets the emotional vision of where the team is headed. It's getting people emotionally connected to a future state. Managing is driving the step by step processes that execute strategy. Coaching is developing your people to execute at a high level. It is the force that keeps every member of the rowing in the right direction. Think about it this way. 90% of strategy (leading) is execution (managing) AND 90% of execution is people (coaching). Everything depends on people which is why you can't afford not to coach. Sales Leadership and Coaching Priorities Leaders who prioritized weekly one-on-ones, real-time one-to-one coaching, and rigorous sales pipeline reviews consistently deliver better results and productivity. One of my top clients reconfigured its leadership approach with inside sales reps, focusing on call-by-call coaching in real time. While the broader industry shrank, this company grew by over 20%. The common thread? Leaders were present. They weren't waiting for problems to surface; they intervened early and often, guiding reps through each challenge. Why Simply Showing Up Makes a Difference Leaders sometimes fear that sitting with their reps will feel intrusive, yet just being there raises performance. When a coach or manager listens in on a sales call or rides along on an outside sales appointment, reps immediately sharpen their focus. They're more likely to use proven techniques and avoid shortcuts. Even better is when the leader offers coaching in the moment—helping the rep pivot if the call starts going sideways. Catching issues before they snowball is how reps maintain a consistently high standard of performance. The Power of Being Side by Side One sales organization I work with discovered, after a big dip in sales productivity, that none of its sales managers were spending time on the floor. Rather than spending time on the sales floor coaching, the leaders were in their offices, behind closed doors grading calls. As soon as the managers started actively coaching—right next to their people, live—the entire team's win-rates rose sharply. True coaching works best in real time, because your rep can implement what they just learned to get better on the next call. The Culture Shift from Transactional to Consultative When a coach is on the floor or in the car, they can see how a rep handles difficult questions, responds to objections, or frames value to a hesitant buyer.

Do you know the invisible weight of transactional love? As someone who has walked through the emotional minefield, I understand how every interaction becomes a calculated performance.  The narcissist conditions you to believe your worth is transactional and you constantly have to prove your value through endless giving, pleasing, and sacrificing. Your authentic self disappears and is replaced by a version carefully crafted to avoid criticism and earn microscopic fragments of affection. Each day becomes an exhausting dance of walking on eggshells, anticipating their next emotional manipulation. The trauma leaves invisible scars, making you question your own reality, your own memories. But healing is possible.  Recognising that your worth isn't determined by their validation is the first powerful step towards reclaiming your identity. You are valuable simply by existing, not by how perfectly you serve someone else's toxic narrative. Your survival is your strength.   0:00 Intro   2:13 The Future of the Podcast   3:37 Transactional Love and Personal Experiences   9:01 Impact of Transactional Love on Children   12:30 Challenges and Solutions for Parents and Survivors   15:12 Conclusion   Podcast Resources: Join my FREE Facebook group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/thriveafternarcissisticabuse Access my low cost Narcissistic Trauma Recovery Programme https://go.carolinestrawson.com/heal-the-trauma-of-narcissistic-abuse Connect with me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carolinestrawson/ Find me on TikTok!: https://www.tiktok.com/@carolinestrawson My website: https://www.carolinestrawson.com/

A resurgence of global mergers and acquisitions, that reflects heightened investor confidence and a return to normalcy in the transactional risk market, is accompanied by increased demand for transactional risk insurance solutions. At the same time, increased competition among insurers and more knowledgeable insurance buyers are leading to the creation of broader coverage options and tailored solutions to meet diverse needs across industries and regions. In this episode of Risk in Context, Marsh's Craig Schioppo, Alistair Lowry, David Lillo, Haoren Fu, and Eliza Grant discuss the changes taking place in the continuously evolving transactional risk markets, highlight some of the transactional trends in different regions, and consider how these trends could shape the future of the transactional risk insurance market.

Are you living in a transactional relationship with Jesus—believing that if you do enough, serve enough, or prove your devotion, then God will respond with blessings? Many people unknowingly approach faith this way, feeling pressure to perform in order to earn God's favor. But is this what true faith looks like? In this message, Brett Turner explores Luke 7:1-10, the story of the Roman centurion whose faith amazed Jesus. This centurion, despite his power, wealth, and influence, recognized something profound—he was not worthy, and he could not control the outcome. Instead of demanding Jesus' help based on his status, he simply trusted in Jesus' authority. His faith was not based on religious performance or personal merit, but on the belief that Jesus only had to say the word for healing to come. Key Themes: Faith vs. Performance: How transactional thinking leads to burnout and anxiety Freedom from the Pressure to Prove Yourself: Trusting in Christ's authority instead of striving for control The Power of Humility: How recognizing our limitations allows us to experience God's grace Jesus Marvels at Faith, Not Familiarity: The danger of becoming too comfortable with Jesus and missing His power A Call to Surrender: Moving from a works-based faith to fully trusting in God's promises Cultural Pressures and the Trap of Transactional Living Today's culture reinforces the belief that everything must be earned—success, recognition, approval, and even love. Children are placed in competitive environments from an early age, where their value is measured by their achievements. This mindset carries into adulthood, shaping how we approach relationships, careers, and even our faith. Many Christians live under the weight of spiritual performance, believing that if they just work harder, pray more, or behave better, then God will bless them. But Jesus never called us to a transactional faith—He calls us to trust in Him. The centurion's story offers a radical contrast to this mindset. Despite being a man of authority, he understood that his power and status meant nothing before Jesus. Instead of striving to earn Jesus' favor, he simply believed in His word. Have You Become Too Familiar with Jesus? In Mark 6, Jesus visits His hometown of Nazareth, where the people dismiss Him because they think they already know everything about Him. Their familiarity leads to unbelief, and as a result, Jesus could do no mighty works there. This is a warning for us today. Have we stopped believing that Jesus can work in our lives? Have we grown complacent in our faith? The invitation is not to try harder but to trust deeper. The Invitation: Moving Under Christ's Authority The centurion recognized his own limits and willingly placed himself under Jesus' authority. His faith was not about trying to control the outcome but about trusting the One who does. When we do the same, we experience freedom from striving, anxiety, and fear. Instead of approaching faith as a transaction, we are invited into a relationship of trust—where Jesus' love is not based on our performance, but on His grace. How Will You Respond? Do you feel pressure to earn God's approval? Have you settled for a faith that is based on habit rather than expectation? Are you ready to surrender control and trust in Jesus' authority? If you are weary of striving, Jesus is calling you to come under His authority and let Him speak a word over your life. His grace is not something to be earned—it is a gift to be received. Listen, reflect, and step into the freedom of faith that trusts in Christ alone. #Faith #TrustingGod #ChristianLiving #BiblicalTeaching #Luke7 #Sermon #JesusAuthority #ChurchOnline #ChristianFaith #GospelMessage #WalkByFaith #SurrenderToGod #FollowingJesus

In this short segment of the Revenue Builders Podcast, we revisit the discussion with Mike Earnest from Wiz to discuss the critical topic of retaining top sales talent. Mike shares his philosophy on building a culture of buy-in rather than compliance, the role of authenticity in leadership, and how sales leaders can help their teams see a clear future within the company. He also highlights the importance of transformational management, showing how investing in employees' growth leads to long-term loyalty.KEY TAKEAWAYS[00:01:08] Understanding Employee Motivations – Retention starts with knowing what employees want to achieve both personally and professionally.[00:02:15] Creating a Culture of Buy-In vs. Compliance – Employees who believe in the process stay longer than those who are forced into it.[00:03:02] Transactional vs. Transformational Leadership – Developing employees and helping them grow outweighs short-term financial incentives.[00:03:50] Helping Employees See Their Future – Retention is at risk when employees cannot envision their future within the company.[00:04:12] Taking Ownership of Employee Development – Sales leaders, not just enablement teams, must actively guide career growth.QUOTES[00:01:55] “If you're authentic and genuinely care about your team, they're not going to leave. They won't chase a shiny object because they're already in one.”[00:02:37] “There's a difference between adhering to a sales process and wanting to adhere to a sales process because it adds value.”[00:03:02] “When you help someone develop skills they never thought they could master, they're not leaving for another $10,000.”[00:03:50] “One of a leader's greatest traits is helping people see themselves in the future.”[00:04:37] “Retention isn't just about the company's reputation—it's about whether employees see a clear future for themselves.”Listen to the full conversation through the link below.https://revenue-builders.simplecast.com/episodes/revenue-retention-and-recruiting-with-mike-earnestEnjoying the podcast?

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Patti Fletcher, author of Disrupters: Success Strategies From Women Who Break the Mold, to explore the concepts of Disruptors and Catalysts—and why business needs these innate change-makers now more than ever to drive sustainable outcomes.Patti challenges the traditional mindset (and us!) around the language of “empowering” Catalysts, urging leaders instead to acknowledge the inherent power within individuals and focus on equipping them to lead transformational change. She emphasizes the critical shift from transactional leadership to transformational leadership—where executives, including Catalysts, don't just direct but actively remove obstacles and create environments where change can thrive.We also dive into the concept of decision interruption, a powerful method to disrupt unconscious bias without shame or blame. Patti reminds us that real change happens when we understand how and why people think the way they do—and then bring them along on the journey.You won't want to miss this compelling conversation that will leave you rethinking leadership, agency, and potentially even your path to meaningful impact. As Patti writes:“My catalyst came when I realized I wasn't put on this earth to fulfill someone else's dream. I made the conscious choice to leave that trajectory so I could find my own path to happiness”Original music by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Lynz Floren⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

President Donald Trump has been widely criticized for his “transactional” approach to diplomacy. But is that really such a bad thing?In this episode, I sit down with China expert and retired U.S. Marine Col. Grant Newsham, a senior research fellow with the Center for Security Policy, to discuss Trump's approach to diplomacy and negotiations and how America can leverage what he describes as the “kryptonite” of the Chinese regime.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

JoJo and former RNC Chairman Michael Steele break down how President Trump is changing our country's allies and alienating long-term ones.

Hey Brave Table fam!

We begin by discussing how Congress is proving that they have no interest in cutting spending.  The problem is that Trump doesn't realize the mutual exclusivity of his desire to cut inflation with his concurrent desire to cut noting but “waste, fraud, and abuse.” I explain how this is similar to the Obamacare fight of 2017.  This is why transactional gold is the only solution. We're joined by Kevin Freeman, author of Pirate Money and one of the leaders of the movement, for an amazing update on the transactional gold bills moving through the states. He believes some states beginning with Utah, Oklahoma, and Florida will adopt the plan this year. Kevin explains how marrying the gold rush with transactional and liquid currency is the perfect balance between the status quo of a bankrupt, inflationary dollar mixed with people buying non-functional bars of gold to be stored rather than spent.  This is the single most important movement of our time.
